Yeah, I've heard a few stories about Redline products. I stick with Motul for all lubricants. Never done me wrong and great operating temps with and without the cooler.
hhmmm... i think this is another one of those touchy subjects that some people are going to go with one things... and others with another... myself... i'll be using OEM... after having experiance with Redline shockproof light wieght super ghey gearbox oil... DON'T USE IT (specially you monty as your car is a tracker)
so dont use redline? i was gonna do my change soon and heard all the mericanas say that redline works? so does it still crunch? what i had done today was sprayed some wd40 in the clutch area in the engine..
and no more crunch.. and the clutch doesnt squeeek anymore suprisingly its like.. sick ass.. hahahaha
maybe try that.. i know its only temporary but imma keep doing it over and over again hahahahhaha.. till honda finds a fix
well back to topic! and buy the teggy alreadyy.. best loooking carrrr outtt.. love ittt
DO NOT USE REDLINE! Simple as that. It'll get rid of the crunch, but it'll do worse then its doing good, i know first hand.
Simply put, its good for SOME track cars that get driven every few weeks, and get warmed up for 15 min prior to use... its not suitable for street use... no matter what anyone says.
After talking to my mechanic (who track their DC5r) use OEM or Motul (OEM for street use only, Motul if you track or drive the car hard)

I second that!!! after what i have heard bad bad bad = redline
if your in sydney.
don't go to homebush dealer to look at their dc5r. light damage everywhere, it is just crap even tho it has low km.
like holes left in the plastic on both side of the A pillar from the previous owner installing the speakers there.
Their DC5R is white aye? I went to that homebush honda dealershop yesterday. had a look at it. to be honest, it looks like shit. the cars interior is just so dirty and they claim its only done 50,000 kms. shes sells for 36g. i think its a engine rebuild.

i m picking up a white dc5r tomorrow afternoon =) just ordered my number plate today online.
[ TIU R ] in red. tiu as in my last name, and r for the dc5 ofcos
'03 Integra DC5 Type R
Wakefield Park: 1:13.047 w/ street tyres
Eastern Creek Int'l Raceway: 1:57.969 w/ street tyres
Power: 155Kw with Mugen N1 ECU
DC5r start in LATE 01... and finished production in 05 (or was it 04).
Either way, there is no differance between these models.
look out for one that have a high pitch "whine/yell" coming from the engine when revs are over 5500 PRM... its a common problem with the DC5r...............

So what's wrong with using Redline? I switched to redline about 10,000kms ago. It got rid of the crunch for about a week but it's back again but now the gearbox warms up faster than before and the crunches disappear after about 5mins of driving compared to 1hr back then.
